• Metallic pigments.
• Interference pigments.
• Diffraction pigments.
Colour of effect pigments
![Page 7: Characterization of new visual effects in the field of ...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/62b3029235759f7854613e71/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Metallic pigments. They consist of a metal or an alloy of metal and their optical properties are described essentially by geometrical optics. They display a metallic effect which is mainly due to the directional reflection at the surface of the effect pigments.
Colour of effect pigments

Interference pigments. Two or more layers with a high index of refraction difference. Interference of the light waves, with additive color mixing. Hue, unlike metallic pigments, depends on the incidence angle on the pigment. Pearlescent pigments, which present the so-called pearl effect, are usually subsumed to this interference pigment classification.
Colour of effect pigments

Diffraction pigments. They have a grating structure which deflects the incoming light. Like interference pigments, their optical properties are described by wave optics. Unlike metallic or interference pigments, their effect is not only observed around specular directions, but also at other directions. Since the deflection depends on the wavelength, the colour at a given observation direction depends on the deflection angle with respect to the flake normal.

• Colour effect: iridescence or goniochromatism.
• Texture effect: sparkle, glittering and graininess.
Appearance of effect coatings
![Page 11: Characterization of new visual effects in the field of ...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/62b3029235759f7854613e71/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Colour characterization
• In order to reach a thorough experimental knowledge of the colour of effect coatings, goniospectrophotometers for measuring the spectral BRDF at any illumination and collection directions need to be available.
• Standarization for BRDF measurement must be established, by recommending proper illumination and collection solid angles and measurement areas for specific kind of reflections (from angles close to specular angles to large aspecularangles).
Challenges
![Page 16: Characterization of new visual effects in the field of ...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/62b3029235759f7854613e71/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Colour characterization
• The most important uncertainty sources need to be identified.
• To provide a frame for the interpretation of the experimental data, theoretical models for the reflection of these effect coatings need to be worked out. These models are also required for interpolation of reflection data.
Challenges
![Page 17: Characterization of new visual effects in the field of ...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/62b3029235759f7854613e71/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Colour characterization
• From empirical and theoretical considerations, sets of basis geometries to characterize the colour variation of the different types of effect coatings need to be selected.
• A set of basis geometries may be defined as a set of independent and complete pairs of illumination and collection directions. – Independency means that the estimation of the measure at any of those
geometries cannot be derived from the measures at the others.
– On the other hand, completeness means that an estimation of the measure at any other geometry can be derived from the measures at the geometries included in the basis set.

Colour characterization
• The selection of a basis set of geometries should be sufficient for:
– Requirements of industry. Measurement at the basis set of geometries should allow descriptors used in industry for visual attributes to be calculated. Some of the descriptors usually adopted by industry are: Metallic gloss, brilliance, whiteness, lightness flop, hue extinction, or distinctiveness of image (DOI).
– Rendering. As a consequence of the completeness, the spectral BRDF at any geometry can be obtained from the measurements by using a proper interpolation procedure.
Challenges
![Page 21: Characterization of new visual effects in the field of ...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/62b3029235759f7854613e71/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Colour characterization
• New descriptors for iridescence have to be defined, if it is required from the measurements .
• Psychophysical experiments must be carefully designed and
carried out to develop a measurement scale for iridescence, based in the correlation between visual and spectrophotometric data.
• Appearance difference formulas must be defined, in order to quantify how different two effect coatings are and whether they can be considered indistinguishable or not.
Challenges
![Page 22: Characterization of new visual effects in the field of ...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/62b3029235759f7854613e71/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Texture characterization
• Since sparkle or glitter depends on the geometry, near-field instruments that include image capturing for measuring the texture at any illumination and collection directions need to be available.
• Based on the typical flake pigments sizes, recommendations for selecting camera parameters to measure texture need to be given. In principle, spectral response and spatial resolution on the object are the most relevant variables to be considered.
Challenges
![Page 23: Characterization of new visual effects in the field of ...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/62b3029235759f7854613e71/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Texture characterization
• Theoretical models for sparkle, glittering or graininess need to be worked out and tested.
• A procedure to measure texture at any given geometry needs to be established. Measurands need to be defined. Sparkle and glittering are visual effect described as a distributed number of perceived bright point sources on a dark surround. Therefore, measurands need to include somehow the description of the distribution of these point sources and the visibility of them.
Challenges
![Page 24: Characterization of new visual effects in the field of ...](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062519/62b3029235759f7854613e71/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Texture characterization
• Since both sparkle and glittering are produced by effect pigments, they depend on the geometry. Then, similarly than in the case of colour, sets of basis geometries to characterize the variation of texture quantities need to be selected. Again, a set of basis geometries is defined as a set of independent and complete pairs of illumination and collection directions.
Challenges

Texture characterization
• New descriptors have to be defined to describe the appearance of sparkle, including its variation with the geometry.
• Psychophysical experiments must be carefully designed and
carried out to develop a measurement scale for sparkle or glittering, based in the correlation between visual and spectrophotometric data.
• Appearance difference formulas must be defined, in order to quantify how different two effect coatings are and whether they can be considered indistinguishable or not.

Previous considerations for the characterization of new visual effects may have impact in the recently
created CIE TC-85, entitled “Recommendation for BRDF measurements”, specially those regarding the characterization of spectral BRDF of effect coatings. After the closure of this reportership, it will be proposed the creation of a TC for the characterization of sparkle.
